According to Fair, "Tallia S torm is a one-in-a-zillion talent and an extraordinary 15
year old well beyond her years. Her soulful vocals come from a deep place combined with
her great melodic gift, beauty and intellect. Virgin Records is thrilled she is joining
our roster." Upon signing her agreement in the iconic Capitol Records tower, Tallia
exclaimed, "I am over the moon to have signed with Virgin!"



Tallia Storm began singing in her native Scotland at age 11, having been influenced by
her father Sascha Hartmann - a musician with deep roots in jazz and soul. Tallia was
propelled to international recognition after a chance encounter with Sir Elton John's
husband David Furnish while on holiday with her family in 2011. Furnish gave her demo CD
to Sir Elton and the music legend phoned the 13-year-old Glaswegian 24 hours later to
invite her to open his sold-out concert date at Scotland's Falkirk Football Stadium. Sir
Elton said of young Tallia, "I was very impressed with the maturity of her voice - I think
she has a great singing future ahead."



Tallia Storm has already performed at dozens of events spanning the globe, from Los
Angeles to London and Madrid to New York, where she was invited by the legendary Nile
Rodgers to sing and perform at TEDxTeen.
